preface. 



The Stockman's Brand Book is dedicated 
to the Stockmen of the Northwest. 

The livestock interests of this section have 
attracted to it much Capital, and many of the 
brightest and most energetic men of the 
country. 

Identity of interests has called into existence 
many organizations for the better protection of 
owners against loss by theft and straying. In 
response to their demands the State Legislature 
passed a State Brand Law in 1899 the object of 
which is to prevent conflictions in brands be- 
tween the distinctly stock-raising counties, but 
at this time only a small per cent of the stock 
owners have.procured a brand under the state 
law. 'Many are using brands granted under 
the old county law, while many have never 
been recorded anywhere. 

Under the state law, there is no means of 
knowing the brands of your county with- 
out consulting the records at the State Capitol. 

The estray laws of the state are slow in re- 
turning to owners of estrays evidence of their 
whereabouts*: These facts are responsible for 
calling into existence this little brand book.

I make no apology for imperfections. 

I have earnestly endeavored to get every 
brand in the county, and to get it recorded 
accurately. 

The work has been done under many difficul- 
ties. When the book has shown its value as a 
Stock-hunter, it is hoped that a more complete 
edition will be possible.

Some Nebraska Laws Relating to 

Animals. 

«~ 

The following laws relating to stock are 

^ selected and prepared in a condensed form 

3-^5 with the greatest care. I have endeavored to 

insert those most needed by men engaged in 

cattle raising.

Marks and Brands 

E • 

Chap. 51. Sec. 1, Compiled Statutes -iqoi 
provides: "Any person having cattle, hogs, 
sheep, horses, mules or asses shall have the 
right to adopt a brand or mark for the use of 
which he shall have the exclusive right in this 
state, after recording such brand or mark with 
the Secretary of State. 

Sec. . The fee for recording such brand 
is one dollar and fifty cents. 

Sec. 4. No person shall have or adopt a 
brand or mark previously recorded under this 
act to another person if used on the same side. 
Neither shall the Secretary of State record the 
same brand or mark to more than one person, 
unless for opposite sides. 

Sec. 5. Application for State brand. See 
County Clerk. 

Sec. 6. Conflicting brands. The authority 
of deciding all questions of confliction rests 
with the Secretary of State. 

"No brand described as being on either side 
of the animal shall be accepted." 

"A brand described as being on both sides 
may be accepted." 

Sec. 7. Provides for examination of evidence 
of confliction by Secretary of State, and notifi- 
cation of parties using conflicting brands. 

Sec. 8. Provides: That parties bringing in- 
to any county, stock for grazing purposes, shall 



brand them with a brand that shall be a full 
and distinguishing mark from all other brands 
then recorded. Failure to comply with this 
section lays party liable for all resulting 
damages. 

Sec. 9. Brands rejected. All brands shall 
'be rejected that in addition to a brand recorded 
has any of the following: a straight bar, a 
quarter, half, or entire circle, or diamond, either 
upright or inverted, whether placed across, 
above, below, at either side, or encircling the 
main brand. 

All repetitions of letters, numbers and figures 
on the same side of the animal previously re- 
corded shall be rejected. 

All brands known as solid brands shall be 
rejected. Combinations of letters, numbers or 
figures may be permitted, although the same 
may have been recorded single or together 
if in the judgment of the Secretary of State 
said combination is so different from any prev- 
ous record as to constitute a new brand with no 
danger of infringement. 

Sec. 10. In all suits at law or in equity or in 
any criminal proceedings, the brand shall be 
prima-facia evidence of ownership. Provided: 
That such brand shall be duly recorded as pro- 
vided by law. 

Sec- 11. Violation of act. Any person or 
persons who shall violate or fail to obey the 
provisions of this act, or shall continue the use 
of a brand or mark after it has been rejected 
by said Secretary of State, or shall continue the 
use of any brand or mark after said Secretary 
of State shall have decided that the same con- 
flicts with a previously recorded brand or mark 
shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and 
upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of 
not exceeding one thousand dollars, ($1000.00) 
or imprisonment in the County Jail for a term 
not exceeding one year or both in the discre- 
tion of the court. 



Estray Law. 

Any person holding land in this State, by 
deed, title bond or lease for one or more years 
and being in possesion thereof, may take up 
any estray found within his enclosed premises 
at any season of the year. 

He may take up any estray found around his 
premises between the 20th day of October and 
the first day of April. 

Any person at any time, may take up any 
horse, mule or ass with any portion of harness 
attached to them or any oxen with yoke that 
are believed to have estrayed. 

Record of Description. 

Party taking up an estray shall send a des- 
cription of the same to a Justice of the Peace 
in the precinct within forty-eight hours and 
said Justice of the Peace shall record the same 
in a book kept by him for that purpose. 

If estray is not claimed within ten days 
thereafter party shall file the description with 
the County Clerk of the County. In twenty 
days thereafter the description shall be pub- 
lished in a newspaper, published within the 
county for five consecutive weeks. Publication 
fee is three dollars. If the number advertised 
at one time exceeds three, publisher may re- 
ceive one dollar for each estray above that 
number. 

Owner may reclaim at any time before the 
sale by proving property and paying costs. 

Disposition. 

If a sheep, swine or calf under the age of 
one year has not been reclaimed within six 
months after advertising it becomes the prop- 
erty of the taker-up without further proceed- 
ings. 

If the estray be a horse, mule, ass, bull, cow 
or steer over the age of two years it must be 
reclaimed within six months after the time it 



6 

was first advertised. If the estray is an animal 
over the age of one year and not over the age 
of two years, it must be reclaimed within six 
months from the time it was first advertised. 

Estrays included in the two named classes 
not reclaimed within the specified times, taker- 
up shall notify the Justice of the Peace who 
shall appoint two disinterested appraisers, who 
shall appraise the stock at its true value under 
oath and make return of the same to said 
Justice. 

Justice shall then appoint a time and place 
of sale and publish the same in a newspaper 
printed in the county for five weeks, and post 
written or printed notices in three public places 
in the precinct where the estray is to be sold. 

If no newspaper is printed in the county, 
three additional notices shall be posted at the 
County Seat. 

On the day of sale Justice shall sell to the 
highest bidder in cash. The proceeds after 
deducting costs and expenses shall be paid to 
the County Treasurer within ten days after 
sale to be placed to the credit of the General 
School Fund of the County, if not claimed with- 
in one year from day of sale. Sale shall take 
place at the residence of taker-up. 

Estray mnst bring at least two-thirds of 
appraised value, or be reappraised and again 
offered one vveek later without further notice. 

If appraisers think the animal will not bring 
more than enough to pay the expenses of sale 
and advertisement, sale shall be dispensed with 
and taker-up shall upon payment of expenses 
be the owner.

Rules for measuring Hay in Stack. 

We give below some rules for measuring hay 
in the stack. The rules are in common use 
but the conditions of hay are so different and 
the shape of stacks so varied that no rule can 
be relied upon as perfectly accurate. 

In well settled hay 343 cu. feet will make a 
ton. 

Prairie hay in stack is generaly bought and 
sold when settled 425 cu. feet per ton. Un- 
settled prairie hay 512 cu. feet per ton. 

Rule I. Divide the sum of the distance over 
the stack and the width by 4. Multiply this 
result by itself and that product by the length 
and divide by 343 or 425. The result is in tons 
and cu. feet. 

Rule II. Multiply the product of the length 
by the breadth by i the distance over the stack 
and divide by 343 or 425. 

Rule III. To measure round stacks. Di- 
vide the distance around the stack by 4 and the 
distance over by 3. This gives the square at 
base and height which multiplied together 
gives the cu. feet. Divide by 343 or 425, 

¥ ¥ 

Rules for measuring Ear Corn in the 
©rib. 

To get the number of cu. feet. Multiply the 
length by the breadth and that product by the 
height. 

Rule I. Multiply the cu. ft. by 4 and divide 
by 9, the result is in bushels. 

Rule II. Multiply the cu. ft. by 4| and cut 
off the right hand figure, the result is in bus. 

To measure wheat, shelled* corn or oats in a 
wagon box or bin. Multiply the cu. ft. by 8 
and for greater accuracy add i bu. for every 
100 cu. ft.
